Need Rear Tires
So, on my way down the Waldo Grade (immediately North of the Golden Gate Bridge) at a sane 65 heading to TRG to get toe links installed and an alignment, the car suddenly feels weird, pulling to the right anytime I hit the accelerator. I pull off, park it, and see that I lost tire pressure in the right rear. Apparently, went down with such a thump that it bent the rim.
Having the tire dismounted so I can send the rim to Forgeline for repair/replacement, I see where I have excessive wear on the rear inners. On the tire that went down, there's a small hole where it went through the casing. Too much camber!!
Glad it didn't happen two weekends ago when I was doing 142 on Hwy 25 out of Hollister!!!! Not paying attention as I should now that I'm not tracking.
Before I order up new rears, anyone selling a set of 295/30-18 N2?? Or one good one?

Have a set that I bought as spares here on rennlist last feb. Haven't tracked as much as i was hoping this year so this set has been sitting idle. I think they had four hundred miles on them when I got them. Look new. One had a thin screw in the tread block, but it didn't puncture the inside. Let me know if you're interested.
